Oh, I agree. Sometimes it's just not possible to rewrite everything,
especially if the customer wants it finished yesterday. I always try to
avoid this sort of thing, and only use includes for common functions if
possible, but for one particular case this was the only solution I could
come up with in the specified timeframe and so far it's worked flawlessly,
and there's been no noticeable performance degradation (my use of it is on
an intranet system with a small number of users and a low transaction rate,
not a public web site).
